Chasing You ↠ Jonah Marais

{49}

September 7, 2017

I woke up with Jonah's arm latched around my waist. I looked around and noticed that we were still on the air mattress from last night and the lights were still strung up and turned on.

"Jonah, wake up," I whispered. He didn't budge so i tried to wake him up again, which i failed at. I started poking his face before I saw him smile. "Okay, how long have you been awake?"

"A lot longer than you," he replied. He opened his eyes and looked at me.

"Why didn't you just wake me up?"

"Because you looked so cute. Plus, last time I tried to wake you up, it didn't go so well."

"Okay, that was a nap that I really needed. This is different."

"Sure it is." I rolled my eyes and sat up. "What time is it?"

"About seven."

I nodded my head and stood up, followed by Jonah. We took down the lights and folded the air mattress in a comfortable silence.

"I'll go get the car so we don't have to carry everything for five minutes." I turned around and started walking to the car. I got in and saw an extra sweatshirt laying in the passenger seat. I looked down and noticed that I was wearing the one Jonah had on last night. I smiled and started the car and pulled back into where everything was set up. We put everything into the car and got in.

"Do you want to stop somewhere and get something to eat?" I asked.

"Yeah, sure. I'll pay."

"Jonah, you're not paying."

"Yes, I am."

"No, you're not."

"Mikayla, you literally set everything up last night. You saved me a hell of a lot of work and worry, just let me pay."

"But-"

"Mikayla, please?" he begged.

"Fine."

We walked in and a waiter sat us down at a table.

"Your server will be here in just a second to take your drink orders."

"Okay, thank you." Jonah pulled out a chair. "My lady."

"Why thank you kind sir," I said, sitting down.

Jonah sat down and a woman came over to our table. "Hi, what can I get you to drink?" she asked.

"Orange juice," I said.

"Same for me, and a coffee."

"Will do." She turned and walked away.

"Hey Mik," Jonah said.

"Yeah?"

"You know, now that you have done something, I have to do something to."

"Oh, it that how it goes?"

"Yep."

"Okay, so what are you going to do?"

Jonah slid out of his seat and onto one knee. He pulled out a container from a gumball machine and took out a ring. "Mikayla, will you be my girlfriend?"

I covered my mouth to try to keep the laughs from escaping my mouth. "Are you serious right now?"

"Yes."

"Okay then, yes Jonah I will be your girlfriend."

He smiled and sat back down in his chair. He grabbed my hand and slipped the ring onto one of my fingers.

"Did you really get that out of the gumball machine over there?" I asked.

"Yes. It's the best I could do for now."

"It's cute, I like it."

-

"We're back!" I called as me and Jonah walked into the boys' house.

Alyssa walked over to us and gave me a hug. "They're not here right now, but I need to talk to you," she said, grabbing Jonah's arm.

"Hey, don't take my boyfriend, we just got here."

Alyssa's eyes went wide and she looked at Jonah. "Okay, now I REALLY need to talk to you, and you too," she said, looking at me before she dragged Jonah into the kitchen.
